Answer:

x = 3, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y=y

then, -3x +7 = 2x-8

7+8 = 3x+2x

15 = 5x

x=3

substitute

y = 2(3) - 8

y = -2

Answer:

y = -2

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using elimination

1. Rearrange the equations to make it easier to solve

y = -3x + 7 → 3x + y = 7

y = 2x - 8 → 2x - y = 8

2. Multiply the equations to have a matching coefficient

2(3x + y = 7) = 6x + 2y = 14

3(2x - y = 8) = 6x - 3y = 24

3. Subtract

 6x + 2y = 14

<u>- 6x - 3y = 24</u>

  0 + 5y = -10

4. Solve for y

5y = -10

y = -2

5. Substitute y in any equation to solve for x

-2 = -3x + 7

-3x = -9

x = 3

Jeremy earns $234 for 36 hours of work. Miguel earns $288 for 40 hours of work . Are the pay rates of these two people proportio
dem82 [27]
The pay rates of these two people are not proportional because if you divide 234 by 36 and 288 by 40, it is shown that Miguel earns $7.20 every hour and Jeremy earns $6.50 per hour. Thus, the pay rates of these two people are not proportional.

HElp K 12 test! Will give brainiest PLS HELP!!!!
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

1. d  2. a  3. d  4. a  5. a

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1, d is negative because, if there an even number of negatives, the answer will be positive. a. would have been correct, but you multiply that one by 0. 0 is not negative, so the answer has to be d.

2. is -21. You can multiply 3 times seven then make it negative, or simply add -7 together 3 times.

3. is d because the two negatives cancel each other out. Even numbers of negatives cancel each other out. therefore, 17 times 6 is 102.

4. -120 is the answer because there are 3 negatives. That is an odd number, so we know our answer is negative. -5 times -3 is 15, and 15 times -8 is -120.

5. is a because -1 times 4 is -4, then -4 times -9 is 36. 36 times -3 is then -108.

Which expression is equivalent to (16x^8y^-12)^1/2
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The equivalent expression is \Rightarrow \dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (16x^8y^{-12})^{1/2}

We need to simplify the expression. We will distribute radical with each term inside the parentheses.

\Rightarrow (16x^8y^{-12})^{1/2}

Distribute the radical

\Rightarrow 16^{1/2}\cdot x^{8\cdot 1/2\cdot y^{-12\cdot 1/2}

\Rightarrow 4\cdot x^4\cdot y^{-6}

\Rightarrow 4x^4y^{-6}

Now we will simplify the negative exponent.

\Rightarrow \dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}

Hence, The equivalent expression is \Rightarrow \dfrac{4x^4}{y^6}
